Quick Question - Need to send supplier invoices

[sdenton7]

I need to get creative with sending a few supplier invoices. Athlough I did aquire the items legally -I don't have and cannot send original invoices.

Anyone with any experience - would you use:

1. a larger, well known supplier
2. Online only retailer
3. Smaller, local store that sells the product.

Side Note: This is a Branded OEM Electronic Accessory (Not sure if that makes a difference?)

Does any one have a creative example they used and can post/send? Or possibly already a link on here?

I would think local retail store invoice would be safe,esp those which have already gone under !

They have to be up to date. It might be hard explaining to Paypal how you're getting inventory from a closed down business.

first I could have bought the items before it was shut down,second,I doubt if Paypal will call the local retail store,if it does,it will get a message the phone is no longer in service/

Be that as it may, you're required to send in invoices which are up to date or else they will be rejected. It's listed as one of the requirements when you go to submit your invoices/receipts.

Since Xmas is coming,those who pre sell hot Xmas items like toys,both Ebay and Paypal will ask for proof you have placed an order in advance with either the manufacturers or wholesalers so you will be able to fulfill the orders,and they will follow up and call the manufacturers or suppliers.
Ebay is a place to find hot toys, Ebay has a list of its Ebay toy sellers and will send letters t o them cluing them in what are the hot items buyers would be buying for Xmas and it works well as parents cant find them in store but they can find them on Ebay

It is common knowledge Ebay sellers source their goods in liquidation sales,storage auctions,grandma attics.
If they are asked,all they can show would be a receipt from the auctioneer ,Ebay would then ask them to show a picture of the merchandise and the seller with his Ebay seller ID and may be a passport .
I have done that once when a dealer asked me to sell Columbian artifacts,I have to place these artifacts on a table,then me holding my Ebay seller ID and my passport.
But the irony is that many of these so called Columbian artifacts are ⊗⊗⊗⊗,the issue is not whether I have the items in stock,it is that many are ⊗⊗⊗⊗,I sold them with no problem for little money ,the dealer has no complaint,may be she knows better.

Hi agent006140,

Would you agree creating an invoice using a local retail store would be my best option?

I sold $850 the first day (mostly all my iventoru, I priced it that way) but my account was limited by the send of the day.

Thanks
